Shuddh Desi Romance (2013)

Directed by Maneesh Sharma this film stars Sushant Singh Rajput, Parineeti Chopra, Vaani Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor. A young man from India who works as a tourist guide and occasional rental guest for weddings struggles to find what marriage means for him.

Exploring a younger generations attitudes to love and marriage against the traditional values of India this film is somewhat interesting but maybe a little too gentle in it's approach as the main characters never really suffer any major consequences for their actions. I did enjoy the film and the ending was a refreshing choice. Some of the musical numbers were a little kitsch for my taste but over all this was a decent watch.


3/5
